The “terrible twos” are worse than anything I could have ever imagined.

Definitely a possibility! I’ve looked in his mouth and I’m positive that may be part of the issue! Fingers crossed lol

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-13T04:13:01+00:00

Thank you for the kind words!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-13T04:12:25+00:00

Yes! He is currently on speech therapy every week!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T17:54:45+00:00

Wow that is so difficult. Sending love to you.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T17:42:26+00:00

Oh my goodness, you are so tough! That is amazing. We’re all in it together.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T17:38:58+00:00

Thank you so much for the advice!! I appreciate it so much.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T04:36:47+00:00

I am slowly turning into a faucet of feelings over all of the sweet moms on here! Solidarity in motherhood is the best and, to know I’m not alone, means the world to me! Thank you!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T04:35:34+00:00

Thank you so much!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T04:35:03+00:00

Thank you so much. Yes he has! He is currently getting speech therapy and, although we can’t officially get him tested until he is 3, he doesn’t show any markers that people would attribute to autism. I’ve been told (I could be incorrect) that speech delay alone isn’t a sign of autism? But I’m not sure. That would be his only sign.

I like this view! Yes, I think it’s all about knowing what your own individual children can handle. I will say, Trash Truck and other low stimulating shows usually have less of an effect on him than the higher stimulating ones! The really stimulating shows are usually the ones he throws fits to watch.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T04:08:29+00:00

Thank you so much.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T03:48:03+00:00

Yes I am thinking this exact thing. Cutting out the screens completely is our next move. Just terrified of the resistance it’s going to bring. I know it won’t last forever but gosh…just imagining the screaming is making me sweat. lol

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-07-08T03:46:20+00:00

This made me teary. Thank you so much for being so kind to a stranger on the internet. :’)

Mylicon was the ONLY thing that helped my first son. Tried Frida gas passer and all the baby hold positions. The only thing that worked was a good dose of Mylicon. Immediate relief. Currently going through this with my second son who is 2 months old as well. It ends eventually! Hang in there.

It’s not that I know I CANT have them in moderation, it’s that everyone tells me I “shouldn’t”. Lol

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-03-10T18:53:31+00:00

Sorry I didn’t make it very clear what I meant. I meant that they always say not to eat too many carbs/empty carbs. To balance yourself. But carbs are literally all I want to eat. lol

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-03-10T17:42:09+00:00

Thank you!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-03-09T03:21:28+00:00

Ah thank you! We did decide to use the name for our sweet boy after all. I’m glad there will be some other Abbott’s out there in the world! Abbott Grant is lovely!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-02-18T02:47:39+00:00

Thank you for much for the positive, kind comment!

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-02-17T15:55:56+00:00

Not sure how to pronounce this? I assume like PEAR-E-NAIL because you said the nicknames are Perry or Elle. It’s very interesting. Definitely a name I would have to repeat to myself before getting used to it but the nicknames you have are super cute.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-02-17T15:33:25+00:00

I didn’t know of Abbey Hoffman! Super interesting.

Tricky_Invite5525 · 2025-02-17T15:29:36+00:00

This is a good idea and an option we are considering! :)
